Design and Implementation of an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Emulator Using Virtualization Techniques

Tags:
multimedia

Overview Multimedia service provisioning in Packet-Switched networks is one of the most active research and standardization efforts nowadays, and constitutes the most likely evolution of current telecommunication networks. In this environment, the 3GPP IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) represents the service provisioning platform of choice for SIP-based content delivery in mobile and fixed environments. However, in spite of the advanced status of research and specification in this field, few IMS-based services have been defined or deployed, mainly due to the fact that production or experimental IMS platforms are scarcely available for service validation and testing.

Is a bitter Marconi bitching about BT's chances?

It is aiming to start moving customers onto IP in 2006, and to switch off its circuit-switched voice network by 2010. Last month C&W announced it had chosen Marconi to supply a 'multiservice provisioning platform' - effectively the same kind of...

3G: It's not the business

For example, business users can conduct meetings on the road, complete with video, voice and "white board" illustrations, through IP multimedia subsystems (IMS) - a next-generation network architecture that sits on top of 3G networks.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
